Giant’s Causeway

Yesterday, we drove to the giants causeway. It was a stunning and beautiful area on the coast. Our day was sunny and hot, and although they claimed it was one of the windiest areas of Ireland, the day was calm.


A ruined seaside castle.


The view from the top.


The sea edge was dotted with these huge rocks. It is a very mythical place where the locals retell folklore stories of a huge giant living there.
There are thousands of these rock-pillar formations. They were formed by volcanic rock millions of years ago, and the way it hardened formed into hexagons.



They are natural paving stones.











This was said to be the giant’s boot.

The view from high above...it was quite a climb!


Couldn’t resist!
